(Clearwisdom.net) I am a secondary school student who previously misunderstood Dafa because of the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP's) propaganda. But what I could not understand all this time was this: Why are so many people still practicing Falun Gong?
By a lucky coincidence I received a truth clarification handout. Now I understand about Falun Gong.
First, I understand that Falun Gong practitioners are not wrong to follow the principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance." The cruel crackdown is too evil. The CCP is persecuting practitioners in many ways. The Falun Gong practitioners are suffering wrongful treatment.
I also understand now that practitioners are not like what the CCP tells people. They are righteous and conscientious. Falun Gong purifies their bodies and teaches them to contribute to the society, not to resist the government.
Later I fortunately read Zhuan Falun and became a Dafa practitioner. Within only one month of cultivation my mind and body changed greatly. I became healthier and happier. Every single day I carefully do the three things that Master asks of us. Every day in one's life is meaningful. I could not always get along with my classmates before. Sometimes I even would fight with them. Now I know to forgive people. Though I cannot yet reach the standard as Master says,
"...not fight back when you are beaten or sworn at." (Zhuan Falun)
I do think I have changed a lot. I understand that "Good is rewarded with good and evil with evil" is an unchangeable principle. I want to be a good person in every situation.
I am an ethnic Tibetan. Cultivating in Dafa is my predestined opportunity. It is also the arrangement of a god. I will clarify the truth widely to people in the future, to help more people awaken from the CCP's lies and rumors.
